Slicing/Fresh Eating

If you love cucumber slices in a salad, slicing cucumbers are for you.  Long and slender, they are a refreshing and welcome taste of summer.  Our daughter, Anne, loves them in a salad with peas and a yogurt dressing.  Another favorite is Sheila's cucumber boats, which are basically a tuna melt in a cucumber instead of on bread.  Any way you slice it, they are great!

Look for the carrot for the Annie's Favorites.
